The Scientific Housewife.

She was learned in all the lore
OF science and her store
Of attachments pewildering and grand;
She could tell you what to eat
From cereals to meat,
And analyze all eatables off hand.
She loved learned man
On the scientific plan,
And the couple formed partnership for life.
She cooks the family fare
In way that makes him swear,
And very often leads to vulgar strife.
The meat is burned and tough,
The pastry is vile stuff.
The vegetables always underdone;
But in baking wretched bread
That is heavier than lead
This scientific woman takes the bun.

To Brothers in Distress.


They say the tales have all been told.
In thought there's nothing new;
Poor, struggling. brother scribbler, what
Are you and to dol
We've not alas, the breath divine
That justiies the few
In royalty commanding all
That we must humbly WOO.
The muse responds with sun-born fire
At pleasure of the poet;
We mortals, when we want flame,
Must make the bellows blow it,
Our editors are chary. too,
Of favor, and bestow it
But sparingiy US; art
Is artful and they know it.
While trying, now, commonplace
In rainent fresh to dress,
Such odds and ends of fancies CLEAN
In tantalzing mess,
drop my sober grays and toward
Their tempting brilliance press.
Till in a maze of ford words
I'm lost-one poet less.
Be constant then to sober facts;
You may depend upon it.
1t is the best that we can do.
Whether in prose or sonnet.
Though nothing's new, send forth truth
In well-na6e gown and bonnet
Twill may BE reach some heart-at least
The re many eyes will con it.

IN MEMORIAM.
placed rose in her hand,
My Love. who was slum bering near,
and thought, as I stole away,
She will know that have been here.
I placed the rose in her hand,
A beautiful, red red rose,
And fondly hoped and believed
That it would my love disclose.
We had walked in the twilight gray,
Again in the golden morn,
And my lips had hungered to tell
Of the bliss that my heart lived on.
But my eager heart faint,
Afraid it would break the spell,
So took her bright red rose
And left it my story to tell
placed rose in her hand,
A spotless, white. white rose.
But its petals rivals could be
To the hand which it's stem inclosed.
She slept, and would waken alone
But finding it there, knew
She would know when eternity dawned for me,
She could welcome, and find me true.

Romance.

Said Henery, Really, Maria,
In my heart you've illumined fire,
Which has burnt through my breast
And my shirt and my vest
And causes me agony dire"
To which replied naughty Maria
If indeed to my hand you aspire,
l think, sir, you best
Buy a new shirt and vest,
AS my aims considerably higher"
But Henery he wasn't daunted
From his love he was not to be tainted
So he took off his coat
Said his prayers, cut his throat
And her bedside perpetuly haunted.
The consequence that the maiden
With remorse became heavily laden.
She laid down and cried
Turned her toes up and died
While her ma played a nocturne from Haydn.

The Old Rail Fence,

D to lie in sunny weather
Where the scarlet ivy binds
The fitting bars together.
With dozen different kinds
OF yellow sun-fowers shining
In armament of blue:
Bright morning glories twining,
And the asters peeping through
Where the grass in plumy tangles
Makes mimic forest dense
In the ragged riffs and angles
OF an old rail fence!
Then the tufted silver MOSES
That cling along the rails,
And seize the silken hosses
The outlaw thistle sails:
Where the corn-crake calls and listens,
And the nimble squirrel runs,
And the spangled cob-web glistens,
And the red-breast sings and suns
Till his food of music streaming
Sleeps in rapture every sense,
As bask in blissful dreaming
By an old rail fence.

Unrest.

All day upon the garden bright
The sun shines STRONG.
But in my heart there is no light,
Nor any song.
Voices of merry life go by
Adown the street
But / am weary of the cry,
And drift of feet.
With all dear things that ought to please
The hours are blest,
And yet my soul is i'll at ease,
And cannot rest.
Strange spirit, leave me not too long.
Nor stint to give;
For if my soul have no sweet song
It cannot live.

THE HEAVENLY FATHER
Trust in the of an unseen Almighty
Father is essential to all true religious life or
experience. The soul that is distracted and
anxious about the things of this world has but

Hence, the Saviour lays deep and broad foun-
dation in the things that are reasonable for a
life of trust In world OF order and constant
provident ial care for birds and flowers, surely
the heavenly Father will be mindfulo of the wants
of his children. We are to do faithfully the
work and duty of to-day and leave all anxiety
for to-day and all the troubles of tomorrow to
his loving thoughtful care. You may cast all
your upon Him. for no 0reth for you"

How. so wear 4l,e. IIhis

The back hair is now worn only medium
high in small soft coil, or braided round
ard round. Very young ladies wear
very small Greek knot or braid extending
outfrom the head, but this isascverestyle,
and is becoming only to well-shaped
heads; the larger round braided coil close
to the head is more generally becoming,
and Is used byyoung and elderly women.
The French twist is less fashionable than
formerly; instead, the back hair Is waved
across and carried up easiy-not too
tightly-from the nape Of the neck to
the coil. The straight bang is convenient
IN warm weather, and will be worn again
quite short not covering more than half
the forehead, as all dressing for tho front
hair now shows more Of the forehead than
formvily. The pointed or curved Russian
bang is still popular The newest fancy
is to brush the short front hair up from
the forehead, curving it slightly and
letting it rest against the long hair back,
which is pulled upward slightly, but
without roll or cushion underneath, and
is drawn back 70 the coil without part.

COMEDY Alaskan Maids.

A girl becomes a woman at the age Of
twelve or thirteen years in Alaska, saws
writer in the Omaha Republican, and |
have seen some such girls who were really
quite pretty. The best looking of the
young Alaskan girls are the Indians who
are found along the Stickeen River Val
ley, or the Ilaidah girls of the Prince of
Wales Island Here is a picture of Julia,
a Stiekeen River girl. She is dressed ina
plain cotton garment, and she has a Turk
ish bath towel wound around her head
for ornament. There is ring in her nose,
and she has pair of very soft, beautiful
eyes. Julia, like all Indian girls here,
dresses in long, plain cotton undergar-
ment when at home, and when she goes
out she has a gayly colored blanket which
she throws about her shoulders. The
llaidah girls have relatively fair skins,
soft, dovc-like eyes, very small, symmet-
rical hands and small feet, and their in
steps are so high that that the water can
run under them without touching the
sole. They are very passionate and hot
blooded, and they would be graceful
were it not for their pigeon-toed gait.
They are really modest when in the pres
ence of white men, keep their eyes nearly
always on the ground, and are forward in
no way whatever Some of them have a
delicate peach-bloom blush or blood
mantling upon their checks, and their
complexion is that of very dark bru-
nette.
